Stuttgart vs Wolfsburg over 2.5 goals - 159 @ The Greek
Well it is a bit shocking to see Stuttgart sitting in the relegation zone. Defense has been a problem with only one clean sheet out of their last nine games. Stuttgart did end the first half of the season with a 3-1 win against Hoffenheim. Now they will start the second half of the season against a Wolfsburg team playing for a Europe Cup spot. Wolfsburg has not been shutout and they have not kept a clean sheet in any of their last seven league games. Wolfsburg manager Armin Veh is looking for his team to attack from minute one. Not the best odds but this smells like a high scoring game. (8/10)

Chelsea vs Sunderland over 3 goals - 103 @ The Greek
Chelsea has kept only one clean sheet out of their last six league games. They are sitting in first place with a one point lead over second place Manchester United. Chelsea has a two goal lead in goal differential over ManU. Chelsea scored two or more goals in each of their last four home games. They will be playing a Sunderland team that conceded two or more goals in three of their last five away games. ManU will no doubt score some goals against Burnley on Saturday. I expect Chelsea will go all out to keep their lead in the goal differential but I doubt they keep Sunderland off the scoreboard. Over she blows. (7/10)
